Had the wonderful opportunity to go and meet Mr B W Roberts last evening ( per kind favour of Khushru Monocherhomji ).Despite the accident/ injury / he looks well and cheerful. We chatted about Bishops obviously ! His memory is as sharp as ever - remembering old boys / incidents/ hockey and footballers of Bishops/ old staff etc. He mentioned Mr Mogre/ Morlin/ AE Lunn/ Mr Pope/ Aviet/ Jagtap and a...number of the servants as well - Babu/ Ramdass / Shivaram etc. Also some funny incidents which embarassed him . Mrs Roberts is well and quite cheerful as well. I was pleased to know that Mr Roberts is on skype . Am told he walked down the road to buy his medicines yesterday .
Something you may not know / may not believe as well. When he had the accident and fractured his hip he asked some men to pick up his scooter and put him on it . He then rode home in that condition - a journey of a little over a km- weaving through dense traffic - he fainted as he reached home - thats will power and courage for you . Thank you Mr & Mrs Roberts for sparing some time to meet us and for the the lovely prayer you said for us before we left and your special blessings - we are ever grateful GOD BLESS YOU AND MRS ROBERTS .
Thanks Khushru for giving up your evening to take us there .
